[Verse]
C F C
I came from the dream-time, From the dusty red-soil plains
Am F G C
I am the ancient heart, The keeper of the flame
F G Am
I stood upon the rocky shores, I watched the tall ships come.
C F G C
For forty thousand years I've been, The first Australian
C F C
I came upon the prison ship, Bowed down by iron chains
Am F G C
I fought the land, endured the lash, And waited for the rains
F G Am
I'm a settler, I'm a farmer's wife, On a dry and barren run,
C F G C
A convict, then a free man, I became Australian
C F C
I'm the daughter of a digger, Who sought the mother lode.
Am F G C
The girl became a woman, On the long and dusty road.
F G Am
I'm a child of the Depression, I saw the good times come,
C F G C
I'm a bushie, I'm a battler, I am Australian.
[Chorus]
C C C F C
We are one, but we are many,
C Em Am G C
And from all the lands on earth we come.
Em Am F C
We'll share a dream and sing with one voice,
F C Am G C G C
"I am, you are, we are Australian"
[Verse]
C F C
I'm a teller of stories, I'm a singer of songs,
Am F G C
I am Albert Namatjira, And I paint the ghostly gums.
F G Am
I'm Clancy on his horse, I'm Ned Kelly on the run,
C F G C
I'm the one who waltzed Matilda, I am Australian.
C F C
I'm the hot wind from the desert, I'm the black soil of the plains,
Am F G C
I'm the mountains and the valleys, I'm the drought and flooding rains.
F G Am
I am the rock, I am the sky, The rivers when they run,
C F G C
The spirit of this great land, I am Australian.
[Chorus]
C C C F C
We are one, but we are many,
C Em Am G C
And from all the lands on earth we come.
Em Am F C
We'll share a dream and sing with one voice,

"I am, you are, we are Australian"
